Macro Photography-Peony
My submission to Thursday’s Share Your Macro And Colourful Photography sponsored @juliank.
Peony
Peonies are a popular garden flower that bloom in late spring and early summer. Their blooms colors range from white, purple red and yellow.
It’s best to let the ants enjoy their activity on your peonies.
It is a natural and temporary activity to see ants on your peonies. It is believed that peonies produce small amounts of nectar to encourage ants to help in opening the dense double flower buds found in many peonies.

Great photo. I really like how we get to enjoy a flower that is fully opened and see who it looked before presenting itself to the world.
Thanks for sharing!
Welcome @sumatranate. Thanks, I’m happy you like it. 😊
Sweet shot of this delicate little beauty
Thanks @tattoodjay!
@redheadpei most welcome
Peonies are such pretty flowers! They smell lovely too!
Very nice shot! ♥
Thanks @squishysquid. Yes, I think so too. 😊
A beautiful photo @redheadpei!! I love peonies and never knew that about the ants. Better the ants stay outside and enjoy the flower than come inside..lol!
Thanks Dee. I feel the same-let the ants stay outside! 😊
Yes, that is the one thing I noticed! Lots of ants on peonies blossoms! Beautiful shot Joanne!
Thanks Icy. As annoying as ants can be, they have an useful place in the environment. 🐜
Nice name...never ever come across in India...
Thanks @steemflow. Peonies are quite popular here in Canada.
First time I seen this flower but it's beautiful. Like a burst of white cloud or I maybe seeing things. I'd love to see the purple red one.
Thanks @watersnake101. If I see one in that color, I’ll photograph it.
